Pure deep disco candy here. Straight from the weird and wonderful world of Peter Brown, this 1981 stomper is a wild ride. The vocal take is goofy and great, filled with "uptown"/"downtown" references and a civic pride that Bloomberg would be proud...   click for more

A lesser-known secret weapon from the West End catalog. First off, check that big fat synthetic bass... slow and so damn hard. It's almost a shock to hear Barbara Mason's soulful chat / vocals over such a construction (you almost expect some...   click for more

This odd pre-disco Patrick Adams production is almost entirely a mystery. No relation to the Eurodisco group sharing the same name, this particular Caress dates from 1977 on PAP Records. It's an eight track soulful r&b affair, evenly divided between ballads and...   click for more

What a coincidence. As I write this, all i can think about was spending hours yesterday online trying to find a good mp3 version of this. It's a classic early 80's funky disco track produced by none other than Gary Davis. If...   click for more

The Truth & Soul guys thought that these tracks were too disco for their own label, so they licensed them out to Chicago's Superbro label. The T&S guys should be proud of this, these two tracks are steaming poo. The youngins continually...   click for more

When it comes to 80s electrofunk and boogie cuts, there's no one repping it as hard as Dam Funk. With full backing from PB Wolf, Wax Poetics and U-Tern, there's no argument that he is the realness. Don't know any other DJ...   click for more

When Debbie Deb got it right, she struck freestyle gold. "Lookout Weekend" is her biggest banger and has been covered by giants like Janet Jackson, been on countless mixtapes, and has opened everyone from Diplo to my Puerto Rican neighbors - people...   click for more

There aren’t many heavier, more sought after albums for the deep disco head than this 1978 classic from the reservoirs of Patrick Adams and "Red&" Greg Carmichael. The big cut on here is undoubtedly "It Ain't No Big Thing," which has been...   click for more

Had to consult the Mr Fresh bible on this one (our trusty spiral-bound promo version, bien sur, suckas and japanese), and of course there is both a label scan and a "highly sought-afte" tagline. What else makes these things happen these days?...   click for more

Like the title says, this is SERIOUS party music. Ednah Holt's "Serious, Sirius Space Party" is slow burning space disco funk that gets you deep into the groove thanks to production from Kenton Nix (the man behind many West End classics). Real...   click for more

Full length offering from the Truth & Soul (Soul Fire) in-house boys, compiling all their previous 7" only singles (but not that one great 12, you gotta hunt it down yourself) plus about 6 brand new tracks. These guys are honest-to-goodness talented,...   click for more

This original record is stupid rare. I had one copy two years ago, burned it to a CD, and sold it to some Limey shitbox for $250 thinking I really got over. A couple weeks ago I see it going for $877...   click for more

I'm talking 'bout right here. Gary Davis' lo-fi disco boogie funk bomb "The Professor's Here" gets the modernized revamp from UK DJ legend Greg Wilson and Rong representatives 40Thieves. If you know the original, you already know that it's the shit and...   click for more

Ed's note: Woodman wrote this before all the Roots/Pitbull hoopla was in effect, which has made "Din Daa Daa" something of a no-brainer compared to the "daring" choice that it was a couple years ago. George Kranz, take your place in the...   click for more

Monk (and partner E's E) has been on some secret laboratory shit with this release. Even though we see this guy every week, we didn't hear about this release until a couple days ago. I'm surprised dude could hold it in, cause...   click for more
